Love learning new things!


One of our meals during our ultimate reset was Kabocha squash. It was delicious and both John and I enjoyed it. Click here for video.

This will totally be a new staple on our menu.

My garlic-tahini sauce did come out as smooth as the picture in the book. But it was pretty good!

We both also ate the skin, it's thin and full of fiber 😃

We also learned some cool facts about this yummy squash.....

✅ It's an anti inflammatory

It's full of:
✅ Beta carotene
✅ Iron
✅ Vitamins A, C, fiber and some B vitamins

And.....
✅ it's 40 calories
✅ has less than half the carbs of most other squash about 7 grams per cup.

Most likely won't be making the chickpea mash for breakfast after the Reset, the microgreen salad will make a comeback, not my favorite but it's good and filling, the Kabocha squash heck yes!

And we even got to try it in a coconut Kabocha squash soup the next day!  Think I may have made it too thick it was more like porridge.  Not horrible, but I prefer the squash with the tahini garlic sauce over the coconut soup.

Christmas Eve

In my heart I know that they are together in heaven celebrating with Jesus and all those I love who have gone home to glory and that brings peace and comfort to my heart. My heart is also filled with so much gratitude because my parents left us with so many wonderful traditions and family memories, family was everything to them. They always instilled in us a spirit of gratitude and unconditional love, and I am so grateful that never was there ever a time that I talked to my mom or dad that I did not tell them how much I loved them. I was by mom’s side when she drew her last breath and I saw the lov...

Spine Surgery, Faith and Gratitude - A Long Road to Recovery

It's been awhile since I've shared on my blog, and this post was not at all what I had planned to share about, and certainly not as much, its long, yet here it is...... and so I'm hoping that my story may resonate and bring some hope to others who may be gong through something similar.  If it strikes a chord let me know, I'll do my best to share the journey.....because for me anyway, it's just beginning.  In August, I underwent emergency spinal surgery to remove a fractured disc between L3 and L4. The disc had shifted and was pressing directly on my spinal cord, leaving me unable to sit, stand, or walk, and in excruciating pain from my back down the right side of my body—all the way to my foot. It was terrifying, and the pain was like nothing I’d ever experienced. I had surgery on a Sunday morning, and that moment marked the beginning of a long road to healing. Anyone who’s had spine surgery knows recovery isn’t quick or easy. But I’ve been so incredibly blessed a...
